Shark Whisperer | Official Trailer | Netflix
From the Academy Award(R)-winning director of My Octopus Teacher comes Shark Whisperer, a provocative and visually arresting documentary that dives into the murky waters of modern conservation, where science, activism, and spectacle collide.
At its center is marine conservationist and social media lightning rod Ocean Ramsey, whose viral videos of swimming freely with sharks have sparked global fascination - and fierce debate. Driven by a desire to leave the cage and decode shark language up close, Ocean strives to connect with these predators on an unprecedented level - hoping to challenge the negative perception of sharks. To her supporters, she's a fearless advocate giving a voice to misunderstood predators. To her critics, she represents a troubling trend of self-promotion disguised as environmentalism.
Through intimate character study and breathtaking underwater cinematography, the film explores the tensions between advocacy and ethics, media influence and ecological integrity. With insight from marine biologists, indigenous knowledge holders, and fellow conservationists - both supportive and dissenting - it paints a nuanced portrait of a polarizing figure and the broader questions she provokes.
This is not just a story about sharks. It's a story about how we choose to tell stories - about nature, ourselves, and what we're willing to risk to be heard.
